A new poroid wood-inhabiting basidiomycete, Perenniporia rhizomorpha, collected in Anhui and Fujian Province, eastern China, is described and illustrated. The new species has an annual growth habit, resupinate basidiocarps with a cream buff to yellow buff pore surface, and a cream to buff coloured margin to which rhizomorphs are joined. Microscopically it is characterized by encrusted contextual skeletal hyphae. The basidiospores are ellipsoid, not truncate, dextrinoid and cyanophilous, 5.3-6.5 x 4.1-5.2 mu m.
